The Bahamas Development Bank is proud to participate in the Impact Room at the 56th Annual Meeting of the Caribbean Development Bank.

Join us as we connect with investors, development partners, and regional stakeholders to explore innovative financing, sustainable development, and opportunities for growth across The Bahamas and the Caribbean.

We look forward to meeting you there.

💼 Public finance can create the conditions, but private capital is what drives investment to scale. The Caribbean cannot close its development gap without it.

The Impact Room at CDB's 56th Annual Meeting is built around this reality. Over two days, it will create a high-visibility space for investors, enterprises, ecosystem partners, and development institutions to connect, explore, and build the partnerships that mobilise capital across the region.

This space is designed for organic, purposeful engagement and the kind of conversation that turns a promising opportunity into a real project.

🗓️ June 3 – 4, 2026 | 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM AST

📍 Baha Mar Convention Centre, Nassau - The Bahamas

If you're serious about investing in the Caribbean's future, this is where you need to be.

Deputy Managing Director, Suamyyah Cargill, recently traveled to Kingston, Jamaica to participate in workshops hosted by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), focused on adopting a portfolio-driven approach to development.

The discussions emphasized the importance of coordinated, system-level solutions to address complex development challenges, while strengthening communication, information sharing, and cross-sector partnerships among governments, NGOs, private sector organizations, and multilateral agencies.

We are encouraged by this progressive approach and look forward to advancing this work throughout The Bahamas and the wider region.

As we reflect on the beautiful Mother’s Day weekend, we are still smiling from Friday’s themed Fascinator Brunch celebrating the incredible mothers of the Bahamas Development Bank. 🌸✨

The event was a heartfelt tribute to the amazing women who continue to lead with strength, compassion, and grace both at home and in the workplace. From elegant fascinators to meaningful fellowship, it was a wonderful opportunity to honor and appreciate the mothers who make such a lasting impact every day.

To all the mothers of BDB and throughout The Bahamas, we hope you had a joyful and love-filled Mother’s Day.
